Obama: "A shameful day in Washington"

[earlycuyler]

Did...own guns....not frightened by it.

Pleas, Enlighten us as to how it would have prevented any of the mass murders committed with firearms in the last 40 years . Wry, and a few others really need a hand.

It may very well have prevented some people who used guns for murders....but please....keep saying no to background checks. Be loud and proud.

Which in the last 40 years ? It should be easy right ?

Had the media done a thorough "background check" on Obama the American voters would have sent this community agitator's azz back to Chicago.

And if it saves even one life!

Yeah, let's ban homosexuality. If it saves even one person from getting AIDS it's worth it.

I found this comment by Obama really disturbing. Polls not the Second Amendment count to this man.

Noting polls that showed 90% support for such a measure, Obama called it a "pretty shameful day for Washington" and wondered of Congress: "Who are we here to represent?"

Just as disturbing Reid again citing the will of the people; not the Second Amendment.

Reid earlier warned Republicans that the strong majority of Americans who support expanded background checks won't forget votes against the Manchin-Toomey compromise.

"The American people ... have a long, long memory," he said.

Actually the whole article is disturbing. "Vigilance" will be the word of the future for all Constitution lovers.

Background checks could have prevented mass shootings: gun control groups - NY Daily News

When one googles, yes it is easy.

It will be interesting to see what kind of effect this has on the 2014 elections. That's when we will really see what the majority of American voters think about the idea of background checks.

Democrats are looking at 2014 and intend to keep their jobs so they will represent their constituents.

GOP to Newtown moms: Fuck off.

So no Democrats voted against it? I didn't know they had 54 GOPs in the Senate.

Why don't you share with the rest of the class how you feel this bill would have stopped Adam Lanza?

The burden of proof is on the right to prove why he and his stupid mom should have been allowed to have the guns they had.

The next mass murder is the GOP's fault. Mark it down.

All the guns were registered to Nancy Lanza; an upstanding member of the community.

A non criminal legal gun owner. Who followed all the laws of the state.

Adam had to kill his mother to get her guns and go on his killing spree.

The over processed liberal only cares about blaming others Sunshine. Even if the bill would have passed, he would still blame the next mass murder on the GOP, that is all leftwing, partisan, nut jobs know.

2014 is over a year away.
But voters in pro gun states will punish pols who tried to foist this on them. That was the lesson of '96.
